A few days ago I finally got my copy of Running Xen. I was anxious to see how the information would be presented. I can tell you I was not disappointed. (more…)

After more testing I have narrowed the issue that I left off with to a problem with the yum conf inside of the chroot. (more…)

At work I am just beginning the process of migrating from a hosted dedicated server to a Xen instance on a new server we have. Our dedicated server runs centos, and has WHM cpanel installed. So I figured it would be a good thing to have cpanel again as several people are familiar with it, and we do host a few random websites for people still. Cpanel does not support debian to my knowledge so Centos 5 sounds like the best way to go. (more…)

I am in the process of setting up Xen on one of my new servers. Just sticking some notes here. Will clean them up later

inittab changes 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1 #2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2 #3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3 #4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4 #5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5 #6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6 No need for kernel level ip address in xen config file set ip =”off”;

DO NOT SET eth0 to start on boot! just add xend to the default runlevel it will start eth0 for you! If you dont let xen do it for you your networking in domUs will be fubar.
